-
Max Ports - 64
-
Encap Type - null

Mode - trunk
-
If the LAG already exists on the node, in Assign Identifier for Selected Template, set the LAG-NAME and LAG-ID parameters as configured on the node. If the LAG has not been created yet, go to step
Step 4.
-
Click DEPLOY.
-
Wait until the Deployment Status displays "Deployed Aligned".
-
Repeat from sub-step
4 to deploy the intent for the second node. If you are creating a protection group, then performing these steps on a single node is sufficient.

Once the deployment is complete, the following occurs:
-
a new service is displayed in WS-NOC
-
a new Optical Service is displayed in the IP/Optical Coordination Optical Service view
-
an additional LLI is displayed in the IP/Optical Coordination IP-Optical Correlation, Info view for the relevant IP link
|
6 |
If the LAG expansion fails, viewing the Operational Status in the Info for the link displays the failure cause.
